1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Delafloxacin, a fluoroquinolone, has activity against gram-positive organisms including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and fluoroquinolone-susceptible and -resistant gram-negative organisms. This study was conducted to determine delafloxacin pharmacokinetics after a single intravenous infusion or oral dose administration in subjects with varying degrees of renal function. The study was an open-label, parallel-group crossover study in subjects with normal renal function or with mild, moderate, or severe renal impairment. Subjects received 300 mg delafloxacin intravenously, placebo intravenously, and 400 mg delafloxacin orally in 3 periods separated by ≥14-day washouts. Blood and urine pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using noncompartmental methods. Delafloxacin total clearance decreased with decreasing renal function, with a corresponding increase in AUC
